It's taking place in Hawaii, no shit it's gonna be on multiple islands.

Woah just like FireRed/LeafGreen

>Pokemon Sun and Moon will feature multiple islands

nice. hopefully it'll have hoenn vibes

>multiple islands
>not multiple planets

You're not selling it to me Jim.

Oh great more water! 7/10.

Well I didn't expect Gamefreak to go the extra mile.

Trumpet + Ukelele?

SUCH INNOVATION
NOW YOU HAVE TO FIGHT EVEN MORE SWIMMERS
HOPE YOU GOT YOUR ALL-ELECTRO TEAM READY

Gamefreak half asses Pokemon, like always.

No fucking shit, look at the map shown in the trailer. It barely features two towns or something.

>region based on an archipelago
>didn't expect the region to feature multiple islands
>says it's game freak going an extra mile

Do you realize how stupid you sound?

Are you interpreting that as being multiple regions or something? It's gonna be basically the same as RSE, one region with lots of water in the middle.

There are a bunch of morons who thought the one island you saw in the trailer was the whole game.

I have no idea why, considering the starting town alone took up a 3rd of the island

WOW GROUNDBREAKING NEWS

POKEMON IS SAVED!!!!!!!!!!!

Stopped caring when pokemon were key chains and ice cream cones.

Too much water

Lets be honest, is anyone actually looking forward to these after the last two sets of games.

>didn't stop when they were magnets and eggs

>water literally everywhere
>they will still chose the fire/ground starter

Stopped caring when Pokemon were magnets and computer programs.

Never understood why ~50% of players always choose fire. They don't look terribly exceptional over the others most of the time.

ironically before that news neo/v/ was raving about how the starter island we saw was "literally all the game"

Fire is the most edgy.

Because they're usually the strongest pick

because wild fire pokemons are rare and late games, and fire is a really good offensive type early game when everybody has insects and grass type

Fire types are usually among the rarest types you have access to in a region

strong early pick, and a lote of the time a regons fire type options are lackluster. while grass and water always have something either nifty+usefull or super strong.

Eh, is it? They look normal to me.
But only Infernape and Blaziken were good fighters?
Ah. Well I guess that seems logical then. I pick based on looks since I don't play PvP and Pokemon games aren't terribly difficult.

X and Y made good changes to the core gameplay as well as made breeding so much easier.

Character customization was also a plus.

The worst parts about X and Y is framerate drops in battle and lack of post-game single player content.

>each island will have an artificially enforced order somehow
>It's just more surfing
Meh. If they just did a random tropical region and named it Alola instead, I still wouldn't care.

so the same old formula with slightly more pretty aesthetics, once again. Thanks for reminding me why I never have faith in you gamefreak.

and ORAS came and threw all that away for MUH STORY faggots

What the fuck were you hoping for, real-time battles? I was

> last two

go further.

>tropical
We already did this shit in Hoenn. Enough of muh exotic tribal peoples already

Everybody post your hopes and realities for Sun and Moon.

>Hope: Getting rid of HMs and instead have Pokemon inherent abilities to perform actions like in Pokemon Ranger without wasting a slot

>Reality: HMs stay

I fucking hated Gen 6, but now it's becoming clear that it was a beta gen and SM might be better

I hoped for that after Gold and Silver. But everyone around me wanted pokemon to follow you while keeping the formula 100% identical.

>Hope: Welcome to the Battle Frontier!
>Reality: Welcome to the Battle Maison!

Is this b8

youtube.com/watch?v=WmLdJF5Nc2Q&index=57&list=PLCD5E70634946E090

my expectations for sun and moons OST are high

Hoenn isn't tropical at all what are you talking about

I'm hoping side stuff like some form of the Battle Frontier to appease the fans and the movie stuff and tournament from BW2 come back.

>Hope: Gamefreak goes exclusively mobile and caters to casuals while Monolith Soft makes actual pokemon games.

>Reality: The same game with the same mechanics that only autists would defend are different catered to 5 years olds.

even if you care about pvp your starter don't matter since you need their hidden ability to do shit.

Stopped caring when pokemon were snakes and cum

I'll just keep asking the same question, which will decide my purchase.

WILL
THERE
BE
CLOTHES?

I DONT CARE THAT ONLY FRANCE IS SUPPOSED TO BE FASHIONABLE
NO QT TRAINER CUSTOMIZATION NO BUY

What makes you think that? How is that in any shape or form good news about the series?

What will the next pokemon games have?
>We now have DOUBLE the amounts of caves that require FLASH

>tfw game is full of surfing rhydons and Quagsires

I don't want to hear Black Tar while playing Pokemon

>There were legitimately people who thought the one island in the trailer was the whole game

I don't get how anyone can even be that retarded.

I'll just pirate it in the off chance that it's actually decent. Everything so far looks like complete shit, coming from someone who actually liked Gen 6's designs despite the games themselves being awful.

It's a crime that they left that out of ORAS

We've already seen different variations of outfit in the new trailer. Yes, trainer customization is in. We don't know how extensive it will be though.

A FUCKING CLOWN

Indeed. I don't play it but I know that speed boost, protean, sheer force, etc. are vastly superior to the mildly shitty standard low hp STAB boosters. I like having HA Greninja in game too tbqh.

>there will never be a game centered around the Orange Islands and you will never compete in the Orange League

Holy shit a whole 4 pokemon out of 720 ruined your experience?

I didn't think there would be, but after how lazy ORAS was, I wouldn't have been surprised.

This. Gamefreak just reusing "assets" and ideas again and calling them new.

They had the excuse of wanting to keep silver the same

Yeah and you wont hear You will know our names either.

>Hopes: Challenge Mode, Minigame Palace (aka Game Corner by another name), tons of post-game, challenging gym leaders and E4, remade tracks from previous game for bonus battles
>Reality: game gets even more casualized, only minigames are the same Amie shit you've seen before in the previous games, no postgame, no bonus battles.

I'm a turbo retard, I meant Brendan. I must have been thinking of gen 2 for some reason.

Let's hope we'll get to explore another region in the post game...or even battle frontier

I do want to hear No. EX01 when playing Pokémon, though.

I'm fine with that because Gamefreak already has good in-house composers

Im sharing this once again.

I thought the first half of X/Y was really good. It was pretty slow paced, but still really entertaining and had a lot of Pokemon variety. It's a shame that after the first few gyms it went back to being
>City with a gym
>Small route
>City with a gym, but the gym leader isn't there
>Small route
for the second half.

Join Avenue and all the nice side game stuff return. It gave me a reason to keep playing, what with the studios, Avenue building stuff, etc.

I like Surf and Strength as moves though.

So fake it hurts.

so what team is actually working on sun and moon? Is masuda supervising it or actually developing it?

These "leaks" are getting shittier every time.

XY had some better "leaks"

With how gamefreak has been dropping the ball lately, IMO, I wouldn't be surprised if it was just one island.

Yep you sure are sharing more obvious fakes

>look guys, I put chinese text on it to make it look legit!

There was like a good 3 year gap between ice cream cones and key chains. So did you care in between that time and then stopped caring again?

>People still play Pokemon
Seriously though, don't you get bored? It's literally the same game over and over and over again.
They all start with 3 choice Pokemon, you battle gyms in different towns, have a rival, become best Pokemon trainer. The end.
What is the appeal of the new one when they're all exactly the same?

So is the evil team going to be Aqua/Magma 2?

>I WANT TO MAKE IT DAY FOREVER
>I WANT TO MAKE IT NIGHT FOREVER

>hope: battle frontier, actual minigames that aren't entirely braindead as well as actually rewarding, meaningful side content, legendary hunting being closer to dungeons like Distortion World and Cerulean Cave rather than retarded freebies literally falling into your hands
>reality: battle maison, something as fucking stupid and pointless as Amie and Musicals, absolutely braindead casualization in region design and gameplay

Is the gameplay still dated shit they refuse to update or add a semblance of difficulty to?

It is? No buy

your mom also stopped caring about you when you turned out to be a potato

I can't even fucking hope anymore.
Like i can think "oh a hard mode would be cool" but in truth my heart has simply lost the capacity for hoping that game fucks would ever do something different that works.

We already have confirmation it's more than one.

What would be the point of basing a region on Hawaii if all you were going to have in game was Oahu? I know GF has been shit during Gen 6, but come on.

autism

B/W is I think the weakest in the series.

X/Y had the 3D and Amie stuff to carry it, also the rival wasn't happy when they lost, that was a nice change.

Yeah, that's a whooping 2 moves out of 8. You still need 2 HM slaves unless you want to fly to poke centers every 20 steps.
You could ask this for almost every long running franchise. Why play Doom 4? You just run around, shoot some demons, get the bfg, shoot bigger demons and so on. I already played that 20 years ago when it was called Doom 2.

Sun & Moon looks more like Ruby & Sapphire than ORAS did

so yeah I'm very excited, even after the disappointment that was X & Y

Why the fuck did we need a news announcement for that? It should have been obvious after it tuned out to be a Hawaii themed region.

hope: can do gyms out of order again
reality: can't progress the story out of city till gym cleared

>Ok with literal pokeballs, magnets or a pile of mud
>gets mad at ice cream cones and keychains

It'd be nice if they remove it being a necessity, yea.

How to fix this: create HM items and turn HM moves into regular TMs. Every problem is solved.

>People still have sex
Seriously though, don't you get bored? It's literally the same thing over and over and over again.
You put your dick in, you move yuor hips for a while, slap her ass, cum on her face. The end.
What is the appeal of the new fuck when they're all exactly the same?

I played the last pokemon game to dress up my trainer and battle online.

Dude, you always had a Rival that would feel frustrated when losing.
Cheren for example.

Hoenn 2.0.

there were people who fucking thought this game was gonna be 6.5

>Hope: They go the Fire Emblem route and make one version hard and the other one easy

>Reality: Once again there will be negligible differences.

I just want all gyms and all trainers past a specific point to have full teams and have actually good AI or if not that interesting team compositions that throw you a curve ball and make you think.
